PICO
by TAISUKE KOYAMA
With my background in biology and natural environmental studies, I creates photographic and video works, exploring the undecidability of photographic images - in other words, possibilities of iteration and regeneration of images. "PICO" (2015) is the latest series of variation work "RAINBOW VARIATIONS." In “PICO,” I tried to explore to generate new images out of hidden colors and information of digital images. The production was made with hand scanner, digital handy microscope, inkjet printer and photo editing software. "RAINBOW VARIATIONS" (2009 - ongoing) is a group of works generating variations of images of the artificial rainbow images, which were originally close-up shots of rainbow colored advertising posters in Tokyo in 2009, by an iterative approach using natural phenomena and digital devices.
Taisuke Koyama is a photographer based in Tokyo, Japan and Amsterdam, Netherland.
